We have been learning about Roald Dahl and in history. Today we made posters about children in the 1920s and 1930s to understand what his childhood was like in this time. Here are a few of our posters:

Hi, my name is Ellie and I am in Year 5 and we have been writing our own adventure stories. Have a read of mine.

“Are you ready girls?”

Yelled Nicola exitedly.As soon as they heard the booming voice, Bianca and Mia bolted as fast as a bullet through the thick mist. The yellow,chequerd taxi come to life with an almighty ROAR! Terrified,worried,exited,the three scientist turned around the corner to the NASA HQ. Before they knew it,Nicola,Bianca and Mia were being shoved into the collosal,towering rocket. “3,2,1…Lift off!” Bellowed the monatone voice through the tanoy. With a sense of fear and trepidation,the girls were being propelled into the unknown dephs of outer space,it was as dark as a haunted house! A hushed silence filled the air. Their saturn adventure had begun. Was it really happening?……

Exitedly, the space lovers drifted about their cabbens stuggling to ajust to their new surroundings,as they chatted away nervously. Hearts raced,blood pumped. Would they survive in this terrible blackness? Frightend,scared,terrified, their hearts skipped a beat,mouths dropped, as they past many wonderful planets. A worried expresstion crept up Mia’s face,”NO!!!” S0mehow, Bianca had leant on the emergency landing lever and now the shuttle was spinning like a tornado. CRASH!!! What had happened?……

CRASH!BANG!BOOM! Nicola and the girls,her sisters,sat frozen still.”Bianca!Where are you going?” Yelled Mia. There was no answer. Just a loud scream! Worried,frightened,concerned, the terrified souls scurried out onto the boiling,barren landscape. Where were they? Ahead of them apeard to be an army of aliens accelerating towards them! “What do you want?” Shreiked Nicola, cluching her fist. SMACK!!!!! What had hit them? An alien struck out at them with a piece of rocket piping. In a few seconds, the two species battled for what seemed like ages.

1 hour later…….

On the hot planet,Nicola leapt back from the frenzy of fist. Why were they fighting? “STOP BATTLING!” screamed an alien before Nicola could. Without a moment hesatatoin,the tribe of aliens set about mending the broken rocket.”WHY ARE THEY GETTING IN OUR ROCKET???” Screamed Bianca.

Lightning struck. All you could hear was the squeaking of the bats, ugly fat bats. One foot then another i slowly tiptoed towards this humongous castle. I opened the ragged door. The house was full of dead rotten corpse lying everywhere. I walked through the alleyway, trying to not step on the dead bodies. It went on and on until… it came to a small door. It had a picture of a skelington carved out horribly,with spiderweb patterns around the drawing. I looked everywhere for a key but the only thing that i found was a sharp canine,it looked as if it belonged to a lion. I thought that the only solution was to shrink. There was a small bottle on the ground, it looked like it had rasberry jucie inside,so i drank it and i felt a sort of strange feeling a kind of shiver down my spine…the next thing i knew i was another DEAD CORPSE…..
